This was the first booklet I published way back in 2002 and it was born out of a lecture I did in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where I ended by discussing The Art Of Performance In Magic And Mentalism and answering questions on the subject.
It’s a brief manuscript with strong messages to reflect upon concerning principles that will enhance your rounded approach to becoming a respected performer.
Imagine creating miracles with ordinary paperclips. Clipid is an easy-to-perform routine that brings the classic linking paperclips effect to another level. Two paperclips will not only link to each other, but they also melt into a multi-colored HEART right in of your spectator’s eyes. Clipid can also be used a souvenir for your spectators.
In August of 2018 Calen Morelli and João Miranda met in Las Vegas for the first time.
João had heard Calen was carrying around a black briefcase with never before seen methods inside.
This is where Calen showed João his prototype for his metal phone routine.
Once back in Portugal, the obsessive mind of João Miranda took this concept and engineered an internal locking mechanism that took this beautiful routine to a level some might say borderlines a piece of art.
This was an unexpected collaboration that brought about a truly amazing offering to the magic community.
Como muchos otros temas híbridos, la magia matemática es a menudo despreciada por partida doble. Los matemáticos se inclinan a considerarla un juego trivial, y los magos la descartan por tediosa. Parafraseando un epigrama sobre los biofísicos, puede decirse que quienes practican la magia matemática pueden aburrir a los amigos matemáticos con una charla sobre magia, a sus amigos magos con una charla sobre matemática, y a ambos con una charla sobre política. Todas estas animadversiones tienen algo de fundamento. La magia matemática — admitámoslo— no es el tipo de magia con la que se puede tener fascinado a un público de mentalidad no matemática. Sus trucos demoran demasiado y su efecto dramático es escaso.
The perfect open prediction…”
Do you believe in fate or destiny?
You remove an envelope from your pocket. It is sealed. There are no secret compartments or hidden flaps. You explain that inside this envelope, there is one prediction. One card, sealed. No matter what the spectator says or does, nothing can change the outcome. It is fate. It is determined.
You give the spectator a deck of cards. They examine. They shuffle.
You are completely sure of your prediction, and to prove it, you tear open the envelope, showing a face down card. You are committed. And to make things even MORE fair, you turn the card over. They see the identity. They see the future.

Many magicians have suffered from performing effects that are similar with all their competitions. True story, yours truly have walked into a school show and an agent asked me whether if I’ll be performing the bowling trick or that confetti trick. I was shocked. And he was right on both!
There is a fine line between true artists and entertainers who perform off the shelf magic with the frame given by the inventor of the trick.
